Stop reading this and go see "Inception" instead.

Life in Colorado continues to be awesome. I made my first trip downtown today for a job interview. Although I'd been to downtown Denver once before on business in 2003, today I looked at the city with new eyes. Its architecture, neatness, and even the traffic pleased me!

I am impressed that you've seen "Following." I have not seen it. From the description, it sounds like he took the best of his ideas there, and put them into "Memento" later.

I might watch "Insomnia" again now that I'm all ZOMGILOVENOLAN -- although he was "just" directing that one, and didn't have a hand in the writing, which is what I think I really like about him. "Insomnia" was well done, I'd say -- but unfortunately so very well done that I felt sleepy and irritable through the whole thing along with Al Pacino!

I'm sad that "The Prestige" and "The Illusionist" came out so close to each other. They're both good movies, but I think they stole some of each other's thunder. I've only gone back to watch "The Illusionist" once since I saw it in the theatre, but I got an entirely different experience out of it the second time. I think I may have to watch it yet again.

And the Batman movies? A proper opinion can only be expressed with waving devil hands and head banging.

I want to see "Inception" again, and I think we may go to the Imax next time. We saw it in 2D. Did you see it in 3D? Is it worth it, ya think?

I saw Inception in plain 2D, anamorphic 35mm.
There is no 3D Inception, of which I am aware.. Nolan is one of the few directors standing up against it, generally.

He loves the IMAX 70mm though... and so, I would bet that the IMAX version looks pretty hot.

I feel like too much of a Nolan fan boy now that 3 of his movies might occupy slots on my Top 5.

Oh good, that's a relief! Now I don't feel like I'm missing anything by choosing not to go for 3D. ;)
